Satoki Matsushita is an astrophysicist who has worked with international projects like the Event Horizon Telescope and the Greenland Telescope Project, which have contributed to humanity's first imaging of a black hole, millions of lightyears from Earth.
ICRT's Trevor Tortomasi speaks with Satoki about his research on black holes, his work with telescopes around the world, and his personal journey of learning astrophysics.
CORRECTION NOTE: In the interview, Satoki mentions the use of an "S.I.S.", which should be a "superconductor-insulator-superconductor", not a "semiconductor". Thanks to Satoki for clarifying in post!
